I have to say that it is a risky thing to let Wang Shouren be the pioneer of the implementation of the new policy. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

With his personality, he is bound to cut through the mess quickly. If you encounter an iron-hearted confrontation between the gentry, it is actually easy to form a stalemate.

But Xie Shen still decided to take a gamble, first, the person who came to implement the new policy must be someone he trusted. At the moment, there seems to be no more suitable candidate except Wang Shouren.

Second, he just wants Wang Shouren to make an example of chickens and monkeys, and show those gentlemen. If you are more open-minded, you will be entertained with good wine and tea in accordance with the new policy. If they go against the New Deal at every turn, then what awaits them must be severe punishment.

In terms of iron-faced selflessness, although Wang Shouren is not as good as Hai Rui, he will not give more.

Of course, the identity of Qincha still helped him a lot. If he didn't have this identity, would those gentlemen be submissive to him and not say anything. Zhao Ji, the prefect of Songjiang, is likely to throw his face to show him here.

In officialdom, the most important thing is hierarchical status.

As the so-called governor bullies the governor, the governor bullies the prefect, and the prefect bullies the county order, and when you get to the county order, I am afraid that you can only bully and bully the low-grade officials of the county.

But with the status of the chincha, this hierarchical status will be broken. It doesn't matter what your original grade was, as long as you add the identity of the Qincha, the governor and the governor will have to politely say hello when he sees it.

Otherwise, the patrol is of such a low grade as the imperial history, why do the local government and county officials have to tremble to welcome each other wherever they go?

For Wang Shouren, the land of Qingzhang has now come to an end. There must be omissions, but we can't stagnate just because there are omissions.

The implementation of the New Deal relied on a breath, and this breath must not be discharged.

The matter of commercial tax reform is related to the national capital, and there have been several discussions in the imperial court before Wang Shouren left Beijing. In the end, His Majesty the Emperor agreed to Xie Shen's request to replace the previous one-size-fits-all thirty taxes with a ladder tax.

In fact, the Son of Heaven was also very dissatisfied with the previous commercial tax model. But first, this was set by the ancestors, and it was not good for him to bring it up himself. Second, he knew that if he wanted to start the commercial tax, the first person to jump out and oppose it was the Manchu Dynasty minister he relied on.

So he needed an opportunity, an agent to say it for him.

Xie Shen's appearance was just right.

After all, the Son of Heaven is also very poor.

The annual income of the Ming Dynasty was only a few hundred, and seeing that there were only hundreds of thousands of taels of silver left in the treasury, the Son of Heaven had to endure the crying of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Books to build a leopard house, and his ears were cocooned.

When the emperor lives such a wretched life, there is no one.

If we want to change this situation, we have to open up sources and reduce expenditures.

The effect of throttling is not great, and the Son of Heaven can't save a few dollars even if he saves, not to mention that the Son of Heaven doesn't want to save at all.

Then it can only be open source.

These businessmen have a lot of money, and they are making money every day, but they don't want to serve the country, and if they don't use knives against them, who will they do?

It can be said that Xie Shen's proposal was mentioned in the emperor's heart, and it is not difficult to understand that it can be successfully implemented.

As soon as the news of the factory came out, it immediately caused an uproar in Huating County.

The Xu family, the Wu family and other big families have moved their minds and convened various houses in the clan to discuss.

For them, what they have is the capital, and what they lack is a channel.

Take the best-selling silk and brocade cloth of Su Song's generation, except for the scattered civilian Songjiang cloth, most of the sales channels are in the hands of the imperial court.

The establishment of the Weaving Bureau was for this purpose, and the Son of Heaven sent internal supervisors to Suzhou, Hangzhou and other places to supervise the weaving.

Merchants who cooperate with the Weaving Bureau need to complete the number of weavings according to the quota set by the imperial court every year. This way of working is very intense, and the weavers are miserable. Failure to meet the quota on time will result in severe penalties.

The biggest problem with this cooperation model is not this, but the profit that can be obtained is too small.

Although the price offered by the imperial court was only slightly lower than the market price, the eunuchs in charge of the affairs of the weaving bureau still needed a large amount of silver to pay respect. In this way, there is very little money in hand, and these rich businessmen are nothing more than small profits and quick turnover.

But if you can set up your own factory, you can save the money for the eunuchs, and you can sell cloth and silk at the market price, and it is not a dream to double your income.

Businessmen seek profits, and they can best grasp the word profit.

When a good opportunity presents itself, they don't miss it.

Soon, the big households in Huating County, headed by the Wu family and the Xu family, expressed their willingness to invest in the factory. In exchange, they supported the commercial tax reform proposed by the county lord.

After their calculations, even after deducting the overpaid business tax, they can still earn more money than they can do as emperor merchants. Do everything as soon as possible. Now Huating County is a pilot of the new deal, and they can enjoy the most benefits when they set up a factory at this time.

When the new policy was implemented in the Ming Dynasty, there were so many people who set up factories that it was difficult to make money.

Of course, this is not to say that these wealthy chambers of commerce are immediately enthusiastic and full of money. Before setting up a factory, they have to do a good job of various investigations to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

Finally, a month later, the first private weaving factory opened by the Xu family.

The Xu family already controls nearly fifty percent of the share of Songjiang cloth industry, and it is a matter of course to open a weaving factory.

As the first batch of families to set up factories, the Xu family naturally received many policy supports, such as halving the taxes paid in the first year.

In this regard, Xu Tan, the head of the Xu family, was very satisfied. In his opinion, Wang Xianzun is not so old-fashioned. If the imperial court wants to make money, his Xu family also wants to make money. Only when both parties have made money can it be possible to continue to cooperate. Otherwise, if all the money is earned by the imperial court, but the Xu family can only eat the leftovers, then there is no need to cooperate, he would rather not make this bad money.

Xu Tan is not worried about the sales of goods produced by the weaving factory. With the influence of the Xu family, let alone Huating County, Songjiang Mansion and Nanzhili can be easily sold.

The only thing that made Xu Tan a little worried was the weaver. In the past, although the Xu family was also engaged in the weaving industry, it was only a small-scale production in a handicraft workshop, and there were hundreds of weavers in total.

After the factory was set up, the scale of the Xujia weaving factory increased several times, and the number of weavers needed also increased greatly.

According to Xu Tan's conservative estimates, at least nearly 1,000 weavers are needed.

This is not a small amount, even if Xu Tan has doubled his monthly money, he only recruited 500 people before the factory opened. In this regard, Xu Tan will naturally not be satisfied. He instructed his henchmen to go to the rest of Songjiang Prefecture to recruit weavers. The reason why the weavers of Suzhou Prefecture are not considered is not because of anything else, but because of the local complex of these weavers.

Let them leave their hometown and run from Suzhou to Songjiang to weave cloth, which is indeed difficult for some strong people.

If it weren't for this reason, Xu Tan would naturally be happy to see Suzhou weavers with a higher level of brocade weaving come to Xujia Weaving Factory.
